I may be in the minority here, but of all the conflicts that have been setup in the Marvel Cinematic Universe I have found the interplay between the heroic Thor and the villainous Loki to be the most human and compelling. For one, sibling rivalries are always bitter feuds in which neither side ever truly wins. The impact of a falling out between family members unfairly divides the entire family even when those without a dog in the fight attempt to remain impartial. But more than that, it is the juxtaposition between two very different and complex personalities, skill sets, and outlooks on life that sets apart this epic struggle for supremacy between the outdoorsy, muscular, "man's man" Thor and his trickster younger brother Loki.

And the more I dig into it, the more I realized that I have heard this story before... in the book of Genesis to be specific. Join us as we dive into the origins of a very similar sibling rivalry that also had far reaching implications...
